Warped rotors?

Hello, I have been driving my C32 around getting used to it. I noticed that when you apply pressure to the brake pedal you get a little feedback in the steering wheel, but you can't feel it in the seats or anything. My friend said he is pretty sure it's the rotors. How much are new rotors?

I agree with your friend , if you feel it in the wheel while braking it's the front rotors.

It would be very hard to warp the rotors. Try making some hard stops from speed to see if it cleans the rotors from pad deposits. I have beat the **** out of my brakes and they are still the originals after 30k miles. The times I have had vibration when braking it was always pad deposits on the rotors.
